On Saturday My son and I had a chance to check out the splash pad and the completed pad is way cooler than the original plan, and as you can see is a great place for the kids on these hot days.

If you get a chance this summer make sure to take the kids to the splash pad. Their is plenty of parking and benches for you to sit on. And with the expansion of the concrete surface this week it will be a perfect place for a little break from the heat.
